A Stolen Night

They meet again after the long absence The letters and phone calls to keep in touch Do not help the awkward hug as their eyes meet One unable to touch and the other craving it It is too late at night to sort out so they move on out to the fresh air Both knowing the time is limited for them at this point as he needs to face the consequences of his actions of this night They lie there being close, touching but separated Sexual tension in the air Unfulfilled dreams and thoughts for both Knowing that the separation will be happening again in the light of the day Until the next time they can be together for longer than a couple of hours they cling to the promise that things will get better.
